Right... because knowing your competion is somehow a bad thing?
Plus, they've got to have somebody to figure how to handle microsoft's substandard, non-conforming html code. They may suck... but they have the majority of the market.
The invite system allows the system to reduce the amount of load at one time... reduce the amount of beta testing, etc.
GMail, GBrowse, GAnything -- they work because they remind people of this "wonderful" thing called google. As long as the letter G is associated with bigger and better, Google can send rumors of any google product...
The U.S. government's Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) has also been heavily criticized for providing security advisories to paying customers ahead of coordinated public release.
Microsoft and the government using the same strategy! I am shocked! (sarcasm mode off)
Other juicy information from the article: There won't be a patch this month for a "highly critical" bug in Internet Explorer browser's drag-and-drop feature.
So we are suppose to buy access to problems that won't be patched in a timely fashion? You've got to be kidding me.
The only justification that I can see to this might be that microsoft wants to release it to their "elite" first... so that work-arounds and patches might be generated by the community instead of within microsoft. Thus, trying to get one of the open source benefits...
While that's a good theory... I bet it's really just microsoft praying on the security worries of companies. Considering I run a Microsoft network... that's a sad conclusion for me to have to make.
QuickTransit fully supports accelerated 3-D graphics and about 80 percent computational performance on the main processor. It requires no user intervention: It kicks in automatically when a non-native application is launched.
It sounds like it is software that translates one machine language to another? Pretty sweet idea!
It will still have some java-ish problems with each different form of hardware needing a unique version to translate. And then updating each of those versions as each change in the operating systems occur, etc.

Here is some quotes I can find: "Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease is one of the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) that has been transmitted between humans and chimpanzees by electroencephalogram electrodes, previously 'sterilized' using ethanol and formaldehyde." -- J Hosp Infect. 2004 Sep;58(1):78-80
Charging per minute instead of a flat rate -- that makes them more money. Making it difficult for people to trade ringtones -- that makes them more money. Charging to send little alphanumeric messages -- that makes them more money.
and...
Charging to send pictures through a server instead of directly -- that makes them more money. It's cheap money now as the pictures are small. But when the camera resolution increases or when the phone/cameras can create audio/video, the time required to be online is going to greatly, greatly increase.
The world of cheap hardware and expensive services just increases and increases...
If nothing else, this is starting to show that macs and PCs can be in the same price range. I am a pure PC kinda guy, but the hardware to price ratio on these new systems is very impressive IMHO.
Do the prices of macs typically fall after an initial release... or do they just stay a set price for quite a while?
I couldn't open the sample exploit listed in the parent, but I could open he one in the link I provided. The proof is safe and scary.
If they are not going to fix these errors, Microsoft should at least give us a naming system! It's hard to discuss the exploits when we don't know how to name them correctly.:)
Press releases like these are free ads for Microsoft. Does anybody here not think that Microsoft knew this was going to get released:
We will not cut corners on product excellence. Our powerful vision is intact; our shipment plan changes will let customers get access to parts of the vision faster.
Why don't they just admit that the market is forcing them to release parts of Longhorn (like Monad) earilier than expected! Leaks of betas and press releases like these are easy ways to keep the Microsoft buzz elevated.
If they didn't release a product until 2008, the market (mostly linux) would have time to catch-up.

That's a great question. She has refused skin or RAST testing looking for environmental allergies... so I do not know for sure.
However when her daughter takes the cat off to college, she feels dramatically better. She says that's it the stress that her daughter gives her.
She also notices that she gets hives and a runny nose when around other cats... and she honestly thinks she might be allergic to them. Just not her cat.
Congrats with the chicken thing. Reminds me of the old joke:

Any press... any rumors... is good for google.
Surveys and public information releases like this are great free press.
First, it makes you appear to be THE expert because you reported it first. Second, it links your name to someone that focuses on this problem.
Why do you think we see the abc/new york times poll or whatever? It's because it's a cheap way to make news... it's a cheap advertising campaign.
Is this bad? I don't think so...
People get into the security business, for example, by reporting new viruses or exploits.
You can't blame them for releasing press releases.... it's part of their business. As it shoud be...
